40 Years After Coming To Town, Wyckoff McDonald's Closes 40 Years After Coming To Town, Wyckoff McDonald's Closes
40 Years After Coming To Town, Wyckoff McDonald's Closes Not everyone welcomed McDonald’s when it sought a Wyckoff address 40 years ago. Bringing the hamburger chain to their affluent Bergen County suburb would create a domino effect that would “cheapen” its character, some contended.  Look no further than some foreign cities, said one resident, pointing to golden arches and trash along the Champs de Elysees. More fast-food joints wouldn't be far behind, he said. The opposition was strong, but it was nowhere near as intense as when Dairy Queen rolled up five years earlier. Township planners eventually OK’d the new burger joint in the Boulder R…

First Weehawken, Now Hasbrouck Heights: Another North Jersey Houlihan's Closes Now that the Houlihan’s restaurant on Route 17 in Hasbrouck Heights hasn’t made it to New Year’s, some are wondering: Which one is next?
